Very true.




I like this one

Never get mad at one who knows more than you do. It's not his fault, but yours. Lot of truth in that one too.

[Livia]

The wise man doubts often, and his views are changeable. The fool is constant in his opinions and doubts nothing, because he knows everything, except his own ignorance

I like :

Treat others the way you would like to be treated I try to stick to this as long as those others treat me properly of course

I often find that that is one that people tend to say they like and that they 'strive' to do.



Mud thrown is ground lost - that's a fairly accurate one.

Nope, I am not attempting to correct you nor am I implying you are wrong, as you did with me.

I offered a longer version of the same saying.

I love Buddhist/Dalai Llama proverbs so much that I try to live my life by them and in fact, if I were to turn to any religion, it would be Buddhism..


When you are discontent, you always want more, more, more. Your desire can never be satisfied. But when you practice contentment, you can say to yourself, 'Oh yes - I already have everything that I really need.'

good quote there.

though there is a slight exception when it comes to shoes........ no woman can ever have enough shoes!

[Lee.]

Oh in fact... that reminds me of another favourite of mine;

Health is wealth

So true

Give a twat some bricks, he will use them as weapons. Give a man some bricks, and he will use them as tools... or something like that, I can't remember.

Have you heard of a book called 'Affluenza' by Oliver James?
Your quote really reminds me of it, it's a brilliant read
